Sloane Golden is a retired professor, author, and dedicated Ripperologist with decades of expertise in Shakespeare, Edgar Allan Poe, and true crime history. A scholar of History, Film, and Literature, he is also the grandson of bestselling author Harry Golden (Only in America) — continuing a family tradition of literary obsession. His SERIAL trilogy weaves these lifelong passions into fiction where history fractures, time bends, and true crime bleeds into nightmare. He lives in the Pacific Northwest, still chasing the questions that refuse to stay buried.
